Description
These balsamic glazed Brussels sprouts are roasted until crispy and caramelized, then tossed in a tangy, slightly sweet balsamic reduction. A simple yet flavorful side dish perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
- Spread Brussels sprouts cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
- While the Brussels sprouts roast, combine balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture thickens into a glaze.
- Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss to coat evenly.
- Serve warm, optionally with extra salt or balsamic to taste.
Notes
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and help with cleanup.
- The balsamic glaze can be made ahead and stored in the fridge.
- For extra crispiness, don’t overcrowd the baking sheet.
